"I'm telling you that wench was into me last night"

"The only person into you is your mom"

"Not even"

What the hell is going on. I slowly open my eyes and see that I'm still in the crate little rays of light were shining through the gaps in the wood. I groaned as i had a splitting headache

" oy mate shut up, she was into me and you all saw how she was sitting on my lap"

"Mate she probably thought you were a chair"

Okay, I need to leave this box but it sounds like there are 3 men outside. I slowly sat up and looked outside of the box there were 3 men that I could see talking. I started to look around the room there were crates and chests everywhere. I watched as the men talked and laughed about how their night was. I took a deep breath and started to climb out of the box. I was almost out of the box when someone said

"HEY WHOS THAT" I didn't look at who said it I just got up and booked it for the stairs.

"GET 'EM" I passed some barrels and knocked them over so the men would stop chasing me. I climb the stairs that led to another room with more men

"STOP HIM" a guy from below yelled I kept running up the stairs. Then I reached the top I looked around as I saw nothing but

"Water," I said to myself quietly "I'm on a goddamn ship"

"A pirate ship to be exact" I heard behind me I turned around and started to walk backward as they walked towards me holding sharp swords.

"Um look gentlemen I mean you no bad doings," I said making my voice deeper to sound like a man

"I just happen to be on the wrong ship so if you will so kindly return me to Wales that would be gr-" I was cut off by hitting something hard and an arm wrapping around my neck holding me in place I look up. It was too bright to see his face but I could tell he was smiling

"Looks like we got ourselves a stowaway lads, should we take him to the Cap or gut him like a fish where he stands" the pirates uproared at the second option the man holding me pulled out his sword and put it up to my belly I started to scream and thrash around

"You hear that men he screams like a woman"

"STOP" a voice boomed it felt like everything stopped there was no sound, no wind, no waves. Suddenly a man holding a rope came from the sky and landed on deck.

"Let her go, Anthony," he said, his voice was smooth and had an accent I couldn't recognize rolled off him lips It sent chills up my spine. Shortly after the man holding me let me go I quickly moved away from him rubbing my neck. But just when I thought I got a breath of fresh air a sword was pointed at my throat

"Remove the hood," he said I took a deep breath then slowly removed my hood to reveal my face I could see his face soften at the fact that I was a girl and the other men crowded around us

"You're a woman," he says lowering his sword

"I am very aware of what I am sir," I said looking him in his icy blue eyes

"State your name," he said bringing the sword to my throat

"Elizabeth Wilson" I blurted out

"Princess Elizabeth?," the guy that was holding me earlier said he hit the guy next to him

"Ain't she the one that guy was looking for"

"uhh I am not, I am a different Elizabeth" I stated they looked at me confused but then the man lowered his sword

"Well since you're not that Elizabeth I have no use for you" he put his sword back in the holder "what do you say men, throw her overboard and see how she swims" the pirate's uproared with excitement

"OKAY OKAY, I lied I am princess Elizabeth but I beg of you to not turn me into my father" I begged

"I know, your not a very good liar," he said then looked me up and down slowly " your father put out a great bounty for your head just before we left so if you back there everyone will be looking for you and since you really have no where else to go. You will stay on this ship"

"captain what are you doing," the man from earlier asked looking at me with daggers "this is an....outsider, she can't be trusted" all the captain did was put his hand up and silence him

"Well i mean we could use someone to clean the ship and help Churchill with cooking" he smirked and they both looked at me

"Absolutely not i am a princess, i have never cooked or cleaned a day in my life what makes you think ill just start now" i crossed me arms

"Well you dont want to go back to your father and you wont cook or clean for us. Then we have no choice but to kill you" he held up his sword up ready to strick

"OKAY OKAY, ill do whatever you say"

"good now hand over the bag" I rolled my eyes and gave up my handbag he then gave my bag to the other guy and told him to put it in his chambers.

"okay men back to your lives, I'll deal with our little stowaway from here on out" he put his sword back in its sheath and grabbed some nearby rope. He grabbed my wrist and bond them behind my back thats when i felt a sharp pain on the back of my head and passed out

°°°°°°°°°°

The sound of tapping and humming woke me up, when my vision finally focused i was on a hard wooden floor covered in straw staring at a wooden wall.

"Way hay and up she rises, way hay and up she rises, way hay and up she rises, early in the morning" i heard someone singing i groaned and tried to sit up but a mind slipping headache stopped me so i rolled over to see the guy from earlier. He was sitting on a barrel sharpening a knife while singing, then i noticed the bars i looked around a little more and realized i was in a jail cell

"Aye she rises, so tell me... why are you on the run from your father" he said getting up from the barrel he got on one knee in front of me

"It's none of your concern"i groaned

"As of right now you should have or somewhat have a concussion, so any loud noise will give you a headache that would make you want to die. So if you don't want that to happen a suggest you make it my concern" he was right my head feels like it was gonna to explode. That is the last thing i want to happen

"If you must know i was to be married to a man that tried to rape me" i told him while laying on my back staring at the wooden roof.

"Well shit, thats bad"

"Yeh no shit let me out of here"

"No chance" he stood up and grabbed something behind him. He tossed it at me it was a blanket and some bread. He walked over to the door

"Sleep tight" the door slammed shut i groaned and curled into a ball as my head throbbed to the point it felt it was gonna explode
